Hello,

i'am new on this List.

We upgraded from openldap 2.2.30 to 2.3.80. (Solaris 10)

Is it right, that in core.schema the entry for uid (and others) is now removed (commented) ? How can i now found this entry ? Is it hardcoded in Source ?

Yes, it is and it always has been, see in the sources servers/slapd/schema_prep.c

The Reason/Problem is, that we have modified the core.schema (in Version 2.2.30) for entry uid, while uid is not case-sensitiv (it allows, that uid=a4711 is the same as uid=A4711). We need strict lowercase.

Never ever touch core.schema, it is constantly changing. If you have to redesign attribute types, create your own attribute type.
